scoobydoobie Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 Put OEM catback on again for stealth. Car is almost stock quiet again. Just an audbile turbo and BPV now, no rumble. Stromung for sale, local pick up only. http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/85/new01f.jpg Had Hellas, Subimods bracket, Subimods wiring harness installed. Much louder and a slightly deeper tone than the stock horns. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pic: http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/1589/hella01.jpg Installed a Subtle Solutions radiator shroud in blue: http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/4918/subtle04.jpg http://img809.imageshack.us/img809/5850/subtle05.jpg Added a JNA Performance front lip. Not as great a fit as the RavSpec I had before but I wasn't expecting it to be that great considering its a retrofit lip. http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/1592/lip01.jpg http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/5026/lip02.jpg http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/9272/lip03.jpg http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/5377/lip05.jpg Got my hands on a Process West TMIC as well. That should be going on in the next month or two. After that comes saving for the HexMods F1 valve body mod and a VF52 or BNR 16G. Then I'll be done.

Sicotic Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Awesome looking, love the blue! Does the your LP affect your Intercooler? Only thing that looks wrong lol. I know most states you need front plates but just put it in window. I loss power due to it so got rid of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sicotic Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Is that a RacerX kit? If so my piping touches my Washer fluid by the batter yours has a nice gap, I also had to put a pad so the piping wouldn't hit battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the your LP affect your Intercooler? Only thing that looks wrong lol. I know most states you need front plates but just put it in window. I loss power due to it so got rid of it. Thanks! Should not affect power/airflow much AFAIK. The core still sees plenty of air. I hate the front plate too but it is what it is. Soon enough I will be going back to a top mount anyways. Is that a RacerX kit? If so my piping touches my Washer fluid by the batter yours has a nice gap, I also had to put a pad so the piping wouldn't hit battery. Yes it is. It is a v.2 kit with a v.3 two piece cold side pipe. I notice that depending on the install/amount of bumper trimming, people have slightly different fits with the RacerX fmic. I actually had my factory battery die a month or so ago, and with the help of a friend replaced it without dropping or removing the cold side pipe at all. Just removed the coupler above the battery and got the old battery out and new one in with little difficulty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobydoobie Posted February 8, 2013 Author Share Posted February 8, 2013 Latest mods, swapped the RacerX FMIC for a Process West TMIC and added a Grimmspeed master cylinder brace. Had to remove the Cusco strut tower bar and Cobb XLE BPV as they wouldn't fit with this top mount. http://imageshack.us/a/img835/2070/work01o.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img600/9950/work02z.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img526/9727/work03.jpg engine shot before I took off the ends of the strut bar: Gonna finish out this re-tune with Infamous and no more mods for a bit. Next major upgrade will be a HexMods F1 valve body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoobie Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 Only recent mod lately has been an OEM underseat subwoofer. I know next to nothing about car audio and have the "high cut" dial set to the middle position and the "gain" dial set to the middle position as well. If someone has some advice on how to optimally adjust this thing, I'd appreciate it. Other than that, had my passenger side valve cover gaskets replaced and been chasing down and popped off vacuum lines First nice day off in a while so I gave her a spring cleaning and took a few pics: http://imageshack.us/a/img35/7787/sube06.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img708/6412/sube07.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img844/6810/sube08.jpg And an attempt at HDR of the 2nd shot: http://imageshack.us/a/img402/758/sube09.jpg And just a week ago she was looking like this: http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/2116/sube05.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img10/1976/sube04.jpg Nice to finally get all the salt off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobydoobie Posted June 8, 2013 Author Share Posted June 8, 2013 Added a Forge BPV: http://imageshack.us/a/img35/291/forge01r.jpg AND I just bought some 18" wheels.. hope to purchase tires and get everything mounted up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arielgt93 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Damn a lot going on looking good! And does the forge sound anything different at all? Just wondering. Are you planning to sell you le wheels that are on right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoobie Posted June 10, 2013 Author Share Posted June 10, 2013 Damn a lot going on looking good! And does the forge sound anything different at all? Just wondering. Are you planning to sell you le wheels that are on right now? The forge does have a different sound. More of a deep "cough" noise rather than a higher pitched "pshh" noise that the stocker makes. It's nicely built, and should hold boost better than the stock valve if/when I upgrade the turbo. I'm gonna keep the current wheels and tires to run during the colder months.

Arielgt93 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Damn, it'll have a nice deep sound the just like the deep rumble of the subaru lol. Looks great! I need to get me an aftermarket Bpv my stock one can't hold anything. Nice! It's going to be so sweet! Great job on the car! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoobie Posted July 10, 2013 Author Share Posted July 10, 2013 Quick teaser pic of my dirty car and my new summer wheel/tire set up. I need to get my rear fenders rolled, have some rubbing issues. Note: All 4 old wheels/tires in back of the car in this pic. Car rubbed without them in and the rubber strip was removed from the rear fenders as well. http://imageshack.us/a/img818/2585/ych9.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobydoobie Posted July 13, 2013 Author Share Posted July 13, 2013 This is now my 4th aftermarket exhaust set up and I finally found one I'm going to stick with. Installed some Wangan axlebacks tonight. While the tips are not very subtle, the sound is. This exhaust is super quiet, but with a great tone, no gurgling, popping, raspyness at all. It seems to be deepest and most bassy at low RPMs starting off, and then just a smooth boxer note all the way up the range. It does not even get too loud under WOT. I tried cruising at various speeds, 25-30, 45-50, 65-70 and there is NO DRONE or cabin noise at all. Fitment was great and the tips (which are a little larger than I'd like), sit centered evenly in the cutouts. Very happy with this exhaust. http://imageshack.us/a/img855/857/te2w.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img600/3222/2alc.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img17/7705/94e8.jpg [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4hwu7CbhqE]Legacy GT Wangan Exhaust - YouTube[/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
